Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, a prospective Republican presidential contender, said Saturday he does not know whether President Obama is a Christian.
I dont know, Walker said in an interview at the JW Marriott hotel in Washington, where he was attending the winter meeting of the National Governors Association.
Told that Obama has frequently spoken publicly about his Christian faith, Walker maintained that he was not aware of the presidents religion.
Ive actually never talked about it or I havent read about that, Walker said, his voice calm and firm. Ive never asked him that, he added. Youve asked me to make statements about people that I havent had a conversation with about that. How [could] I say if I know either of you are a Christian?
Walker said such questions from reporters are reflective of a broader problem in the nations political-media culture, which he described as fixated on issues that are not relevant to most Americans.
To me this is a classic example of why people hate Washington and increasingly they dislike the press, he said. The things they care about dont even remotely come close to what youre asking about.
Walker said he did not believe that most Americans care about such matters.People in the media will [judge], not everyday people, he said. I would defy you to come to Wisconsin. You could ask 100 people, and not one of them would say that this is a significant issue.
After the interview was completed, Walker spokeswoman Jocelyn Webster telephoned The Post to say the governor was trying to make a point of principle by not answering such kinds of questions, not trying to cast doubt on Obamas faith.
Of course the governor thinks the president is a Christian, she said.He thinks these kinds of gotcha questions distract from...

I'd like to know how he accomplished that while here illegally.
What is your source of this knowledge?
Most of them dont want citizenship; they just want free stuff.
Withdraw it and they're gone.
Well, when ever his ratings begin to fall, he totes the wife and girls out on a Sunday morning and they head for church and some needed photo ops.
lets think...Easter is five weeks away...bet they all head to church, holding hands and looking like a ‘together’ family...then he'll head to the Golf course, weather permitting..
DO I THINK HE IS A CHRISTIAN?
No, and I bet he can't recite the Lord's Prayer with out a teleprompter either...and I doubt if he knows Bible verses by heart, like maybe John chapter 3 verse 16.
nah not possible...
What difference does it make?
Neither. Afro-European. Canada. Not really. Barack Hussein Obama II. Frank Marshall Davis. Yes, among others. 1961. Somebody’s. Rather little.

Walker started out O.K., but his spokesperson’s whiny, back-peddle, follow-up call ruined the point.
The only “Christian” education and potential to hear the Gospel of which I’m aware would have to have been through Jeremiah Wright’s church, which would mean that Obama never heard it, because they don’t preach it. They preach “black liberation theology” and they ally with the NOI. Louis Farrakhan has been on the cover of the church magazine, “The Trumpet”.
Mr. Rove,
So you pick up one Hispanic voter and lose 50 ex-Republicans. You’re math sucks.
It’s an easy question to answer,yes he is a Black Liberation Theology Christian,let the Washington Post,MSNBC,CNN,ABC,CBS,NBC explain that to America,trust me they will drop that line of questioning fast
